Long as we keep brees we are ok cause we have the number one tight end and three dominating running backs but we shore need colston for shore we need some one on the other side of the field to jump instead of going to Jimmy everytime and Robert Meacham this guy is fast man I say cut people who's not playing to much and keep Robert and Markus I know we need secondary and its all about the salary cap we need impact players for next season because super bowl is in our house next year and we gotta be one of the teams plyin in it and the team winning it

Will be an interesting offseason

IMO, losing a heartbreaker like this builds more character than a blowout loss. It's damn tough to take, thinking what might have been.

After the shock is gone, it's empowering.

That's why I'm so excited they're moving in another direction on defense. Look, Gregg Williams brought us to the promised land where our defense STUNK before. But it was a flash in the pan.... 1 and done. Once the rest of the NFL figures out what you're doing, they adjust.

Personally I think this article is way overblown. We just about beat (and should have...) a top-notch SF team WITHOUT Pierre Thomas, Mark Ingram, and Lance Moore. It would be truly sad to see either Meachem or Colston go, but I wouldn't be surprised by it.

Maybe a miracle will occur: The Saints work out a long-term deal with Brees, slap the franchise tag on Colston, and somehow keep Meachem in the process. I don't see it happening, but it's possible.
